Telegram brings TON back home Telegram is bringing TON, originally known as the Telegram Open Network, back home. Durov said the company would replace the TON Foundation as the primary steward of the network. The project was developed by the Durov brothers in 2018 but regulatory issues forced Telegram to stop working on it. TON, then known as The Open Network, later continued under an independent community and the TON Foundation. The TON Foundation has driven a number of key initiatives to expand the networks ecosystem.
